About The Jackbox Party Starter
The Jackbox Party Starter bundles three updated party games—Quiplash 3, Trivia Murder Party 2, and Tee K.O.—into a single Steam purchase. All three titles include moderation tools, profanity filters, subtitles, and full voice‑acting localization for French, Italian, German, Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese.
Players join using any web‑enabled device, so no extra controllers are required. Each game supports up to eight participants and up to 10 000 audience members, and the collection runs on Windows, macOS and Linux.
01 / THE GUIDE
Quiplash 3
Quiplash 3 pits up to eight players against each other in head‑to‑head comedic prompts, with audience votes deciding the winning answer. The new final round, Thriplash, asks each player to submit three responses per prompt, increasing the chance for humor.
The update adds a Moderation feature that lets responses be reviewed before they appear on screen, and a filtering option that blocks profanity and hateful speech before moderation. Subtitles and voice‑acting are localized into five languages, and audience members can vote without playing.
- Turn on moderation if your group prefers pre‑screened content.
- Encourage audience members to vote, as their votes determine the round winner.
02 / THE GUIDE
Tee K.O.
In Tee K.O., players draw pictures and write slogans under a time limit, then the creations are randomly paired to form t‑shirts. Each round’s shirts are voted on, and the highest‑scoring designs survive a final gauntlet to decide the overall winner.
The game now includes subtitle and voice‑acting localization for five languages and streamlined sharing on Facebook and Twitter. After a session, players can click the gallery button or visit Jackbox.tv to view and purchase real‑world versions of their favorite shirts.
- Make drawings clear and bold so slogans are easy to read during voting.
- Save designs in the gallery for easy post‑game sharing.
03 / THE GUIDE
Trivia Murder Party 2
Trivia Murder Party 2 returns players to a murderous hotel where incorrect answers send them to the Killing Floor for deadly mini‑games. New challenges include dodging swords, tattooing the killer’s back, and using a rotary phone.
Like the other titles, this edition adds moderation, subtitle support, and full localization into five languages. Players answer trivia questions, and performance in both the quiz and mini‑games determines who survives to the end.
- Watch mini‑game cues closely; quick reactions can prevent elimination.
- Use the haunting option strategically to disrupt opponents when appropriate.

Remote Play & Audience Participation
All three games let participants join via any smartphone or tablet through a web browser. To include remote friends, share your screen on a video‑conference platform such as Zoom, Discord, or Google Hangouts, and have everyone enter the game code on Jackbox.tv.
The system works on Windows, macOS, and Linux and requires no extra controllers, making the Party Starter suitable for both in‑person gatherings and virtual parties.
- Test screen‑share settings before the party to avoid lag during voting.
- Remind audience members when voting windows open to keep them engaged.
05 / THE GUIDE
Multilingual Support
The Party Starter adds full voice‑acting, subtitles, and credit‑song translations for French, Italian, German, Spanish, and Brazilian Portuguese. This applies to all three games, allowing non‑English speakers to follow prompts and jokes.
The pack's updated settings menus make it easy to adjust options before starting a session, and all three games are fully localized in the five supported languages.
- Select the desired language in settings before the first round to avoid interruptions.
- Use subtitles as a backup if voice‑acting is muted.
